James Gunn Hints at Baby Groot's Voice in Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 2

One of the coolest things about the first Guardians of the Galaxy was how director James Gunn had Vin Diesel voicing Groot. The character has two lines so to bring in an actor with a voice and presence like Diesel gave everything gravitas. But, things may be changing for Vol. 2.

If you saw the first movie, you know that fully grown Groot is no more. By the time we rejoin the team in Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 2 the character will only be about a foot tall. It would be odd to hear Diesel’s deep, booming voice coming out of such a small character but, it’s Guardians of the Galaxy. Odd is expected. Alas, Gunn took to Twitter to tease that Diesel’s voice may not be used as you’d expect in the film:

We’ll surely find out more in the next few months when we get the first, official trailer for Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 2. Until then, read about some of the footage below. The movie opens May 5th, 2017. [Twitter via Screenrant]
